ANFE Italian Club: A Premier Brisbane Institution
As one of Brisbane’s leading Italian clubs, ANFE has been a hub for the Italian community, offering various activities and events. While the club prepares to move to Stafford, it hosts events at its current Newstead location. Members and those interested in joining are encouraged to stay updated by following the club’s social media pages for event announcements and further details.
Founded in Brisbane in 1962 at the request of the Italian government, ANFE has a long and proud history of supporting Italian migrants and fostering cultural preservation. It started by assisting migrants with documentation, translation, and navigating the challenges of settling into a new country. Over time, ANFE evolved to focus on preserving Italian heritage, history, and traditions while providing social welfare and a sense of community.
ANFE has a global network with branches in Italy, Europe, and other parts of the world, including five representations in Australia. The Brisbane branch, located at 10 Wyandra Street, Newstead, has been a cornerstone of the local Italian community, providing social and recreational activities, particularly for older generations.
The current clubhouse in Newstead is a testament to numerous volunteers’ perseverance and hardwork under the direction of the late Mr. Annibale Boccabella, who served as president for more than 30 years.
Take advantage of this opportunity to join the ANFE Italian Club family and enjoy all membership benefits at a significantly discounted rate. Visit the club’s website or social media pages for more information and to take advantage of this special offer.
